Rahimi has only played a handful of games for BjÃ¶rklÃ¶ven but how he has been signed by the Canucks.

Just a few hours before the deadline the 19 year old signed a contract that will make him teammate with the Sedin brothers, Mattias Ã–hlund and Markus NÃ¤slund.

"It's not far from the max (rookie?, my comment)" says Rahimi who is very pleased with the deal, which is very flexible.

"I will go to camp in September and then we will decide where I will end up playing". He can be playing in the NHL but most likely he will play in the AHL. He also has the option to return to BjÃ¶rlklÃ¶ven this season, without losing his sign-on bonus.

So far he's had an impressive training camp. A little week on the defensive aspect but he can sure as heck hit. Once he develops and adapts to the North American game he'll be a great 4th or 5th defenseman.

I like how Edler and Rahimi complement each other, don't know if this was by coincidence or drafted by design...both need to improve their defensive work, but that is common with defensemen and not at this point worrying, but Edler is the mobile, offensive guy while Rahimi provides us with a physical beast.
